Hi all,

I’m four days post op, with my op day being 15th Nov. Everything seems to be going OK after a shaky start right after they finished surgery as I was into anaphylaxis due to an unknown allergy to one of the meds used.

I’m up and about and out of hospital, feeling pretty good with only very minor pain.

I can get thru enough liquid, but have woken each night feeling uncomfortable, not sure if it’s reflux or nausea, it only happens after I have been sleeping for longer than a few hours. After I burp or go for a walk it passes for a short time, but doesn’t go away completely until I’m up and about for the day.

Just wondering if I should be worried, or if it’s normal?
Sounds like gas? Should go away in a few days.

Heyyyy guys I’m already on the other side! Last night was rough but with enough pain meds I survived the night. I’m taking in most of my liquids but very slowly because I become very gassy. I’m getting discharged today. I hope everyone that had there sleeve done 11/18 had a some what good experience in the hospital

Have been having the WORSE sciatica pain in my hips for 3 days. Burning and painful. Hurts to sit still. Medication is not helping. Walking gives me relief. Saw my surgeon today and he told me that because I'm losing weight (30 lbs since surgery) its changed my center of gravity and my gait. Apparently this is a common complaint of people losing weight. Its gonna take some time to resolve but I'm hopeful it will. Was just another unexpected outcome!

Dizzy isn’t good. Are you keeping hydrated? Hope you’re doing better

Surgery on the 18th went well. Wasnt able to leave yesterday as I anticipated due to drs having issues with my fistula for dialysis. Was able to have dialysis this morning and getting to go home. No major pain or discomfort, in feeling way better than I thought I would. Looking forward to the rest of this journey now!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
